Objective reinforces attractive role of Canada in diversified global portfolio

TORONTO, Sept. 11, 2026 /CNW/ -- Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan Board (Ontario Teachers') announces today that it plans to further its exposure to attractive opportunities in Canada through investing an additional $10 billion by the end of 2027 in public and private Canadian investments that meet its return objectives.

This announcement comes as hundreds of global investment, business, and public sector leaders are convening in Toronto for the inaugural Canada Investment Summit, an initiative by the Government of Canada to catalyze capital into attractive investment sectors in Canada.

Canada is Ontario Teachers' home market and is host to approximately $100 billion of its gross assets, or about 30% of the total portfolio. That portfolio spans a range of sectors and includes Arterra Wines, Cadillac Fairview, Canada Guaranty, Enwave, Fairstone Bank, GFL, Global Container Terminals, Heritage Royalty, HomeEquity Bank and StackAdapt, among others.  

With deep local roots and a track record of investing across sectors, Ontario Teachers' is well positioned to put additional capital to work in ways that benefit its members and also contribute to Canada's long-term economic growth and resilience.

"We believe Canada has a strong role to play in a global investment portfolio. With about one-third of our portfolio in Canada today, we know first-hand the appeal of Canada as an investment destination," said Jo Taylor, President and CEO of Ontario Teachers'. "We look forward to building on this strong base of domestic exposure through investing a further $10 billion in compelling Canadian opportunities across public and private markets by the end of next year."

Ontario Teachers' will continue to invest locally as part of a broader strategy of investing across markets and sectors to deliver attractive risk-adjusted returns.
